Allcock's are the only genuine porous plas
tiers. They act quickly and with certainty
and can be worn for weeks without causing
pain or inconvenience. They are invaluable
in cases of spinal weakness, kidney and pull
monary difficulties, malaria, ague cake, live1
complaint, dyspepsia, strains, rheumatism,
sciatica and nervous debility. Other plasters
blister and infame the skin so that the pores
are closed and often cause serious injury.
You risk health and waste time and money
